Buffy living "normal" life with bf named Tom(?). Spike returns.

Pretty sure it was post NFA, Buffy is living the "normal" life with a boyfriend named Tom (I think) and working in a dojo teaching self defence. She has a siamese cat called Mr William (or something Spike related).

Spike returns and kills a monster at Buffy's house. He ends up staying in her basement for awhile.

There's some creepy guy abducting baby slayers (he calls them his dolls).

I remember reading it all, and then I think it was removed and re-posted chapter by chapter...maybe the author was doing a re-write?

Thanks!

None Other Than You: A Spuffy Story by nonothrthnme/tibialisant


Summary: Buffy's got a life now. She's taken up normal, nice and cosy,No weird, no wild, no fires burning, just a staking here and there. No big. Not like she craves it, or something. Or someone. Then it all hits the fan with a dark threat to the line of Slayer, her line. With hell comes fire, a flash of heat that beats in her pulse, makes her feel alive, vital, useful, and an old flame is just the one to bring it: he and no other.

The story was taken down by the author and the author has asked that it not be exchanged so....there you go.

Well bum...that's a bit crappy.

Thank you anyway

You can try contacting her and see if she'll send a copy to you -- I'm not sure where she's listed right now, you'd have to google and look around, see what you can find out. Sorry the news is disappointing, I too loved that story.

Thanks...I found her over on LJ but she has no recent activity. Looks like she's put in a bit of effort to block access to this fic. I guess she has her reasons...I can respect that

Oh, I remember this one.

Was pretty bummed. A few months back I was in the middle of reading it when he/she took it down. I still don't know how it ends
Not to say that it isn't his/her prerogative, just sad is all.
